Prescription for Pain by @phileil.bsky.social is out in paperback. It is well worth reading, and includes a unique point of view from the author. I don’t read a lot of true crime, but this is a good one.

Prescription for Pain is back-now in paperback!

This gripping true crime investigation by @phileil.bsky.social follows Paul Volkman: a doctor-turned-drug trafficker whose empire fueled an opioid crisis

A photo of the cover of the Boston Sunday Globe "Ideas" section for January 26, 2025. The top story -- which takes up the majority of the page -- has the headline "The opioid crisis is a crime. So addiction treatment should be free."

My essay advocating for free treatment for opioid addiction is the cover story for the Sunday @bostonglobe.com's "Ideas" section.

Prescription for Pain: How a Once-Promising Doctor Became the “Pill Mill Killer” – Philip Eil An obsessive true crime investigation of a bizarre and unlikely perpetrator, who’s serving the opioid epidemic’s longest term for illegal prescriptions — four life sentences. Written in the tradition of I'll Be Gone in the Dark and True Crime Addict, combining Dopesick's heart rending portrayal of the epidemic's victims with Empire of Pain's examination of its perpetrators. This haunting and propulsive debut follows a journalist’s years-long investigation into his father's old classmate: former high school valedictorian Paul Volkman, who once seemed destined for greatness after earning his MD and his PhD from the prestigious University of Chicago, but is now serving four consecutive life sentences at a federal prison in Arizona.
